Ok, I thought I colored these properly in photoshop... and yet... *insert grimacing face here*
In the game they look like this
But in photoshop they look like this
I don't see anywhere past the "ear mark" on the face of the rabbit that should be colored in to avoid turning skin-tone, that looks really weird, and there are weird gaps in the orange in places on em and the green from the bottom comes up on the sides weirdly... yuck
I was going to do matching slippers for the pajamas I did but... neeeevermind. O_O

See how your gold recolor doesn't align with the original blue? That's the part that's showing up flesh colored on your Sim.
Some of the patterns have what can seem to be strange outlines because of the way the texture folds over the 3-D shape. It's a bit like Origami.
Also, instead of drawing in the new color, you may just want to fiddle with hue/saturation brightness/contrast or channel mixer sliders to preserve the textures and shadows if you're doing a straight recolor.
And the green that went up the side I thought was oddly shaped part under the face, sides of the slipper's sole, but now that I look at the original compared to what I colored I notice that I'm bananas and that the strip above the soles is the part that I was aiming for...
I'm using layers and fiddling with opacity and layer types (darken/multiply, etc) so that the original bits so through a bit. I don't think I could get the three colors I'm aiming for (rainbow sherbet) to work by fiddling with the original's sliders in photoshop.
Thanks for your reply, maybe I'll give it a try again.
YES ME YES! HI! ME!
I don't know why... though it doesn't seem to affect much.
I don't think it affects how anything works, just isn't pleasant for my eyes really. hehe
Mine was only green when using the CASCloner but when I used CM it was black. Not sure if that's related.
Same. I suspect it's the different programs just using a different default color for that section of the palette.
weird.
Back to the bunnies, I just tried another CM/s4pe export of white bunny slippers and they have the little triangle of space above the eyes that my original in here didn't. Not sure why the first one was different but now I totally see why there was skin color wrapped up onto the slipper on my first try.
